    Moved to Jennings recently and looking to join a local range. I've been in contact with a guy who has a private range in Lake Arthur, but he's out from surgery for atleast a month or so. I've gotten in touch with the folks at the Eunice Rifle and Gun Club. They have a nice setup and seem like great folks, and I plan to join it soon. The issue is, I spend the majority of my free time lately fishing at Big Lake and the SWLA club is in that area. Their website says you must be nominated for membership by a current member, so I'm wondering if we have any BayouShooter members who also belong to this range? I emailed the president who suggested I attend one of their monthly meetings to try to get an "in" that way, and I'll probably do that. Figured I'd check here first though. You can PM me or email at 300blkhog@gmail.com if you don't want to post on the forum for whatever reason. Thanks for the help.

    Have you looked at Lake Charles Gun Club on Ward Line Rd? It's not far from the Grand Lake area.

    You need to come take a look at the Lake Charles Gun Club. It's $150 a year for a membership, the rifle range is set up for 25,50,100,150,200,300,400,500, and 600 yards. There are about 4 skeet shooting setups with a hi and lo house each. Pistol range as well.

    That perfect. I'm off tomorrow, will check it out in the AM. Are there any querks to joining? Like having to be recommended by someone else? Thanks for the heads up.

    No querks, just money. :)

    Lee Perkins runs the place, nice guy and I'm sure he'll show you around.

    No quirks that I know of...Not the fanciest of ranges, but on weekdays you can have it to yourself at times. Occasionally, they'll close for a few hours here and there for special groups but that's never been issue for me.

    Good deal. Looks like the office is closed on the weekends, or I'd be headed there now. Guess I'll go fishing instead...

    Alright, I'm a card carrying member now. LC SWAT was out there this AM on the rifle range though, so I wasn't able to shoot before the weather turns.
